5 Ways To Show HAPPINESSHave you noticed that people are walking around like zombies lately? Smiling at strangers is now considered creepy and never making eye contact is encouraged for safety reasons. We walk around with our head down while focusing on our smart phones. We now show our happiness through emojis instead of actually smiling, laughing and really expressing our joy. Therefore, today we will be studying 5 ways to show our happiness.

3. Through Songs of PraiseGod did not bless me with a good singing voice - I could probably empty an auditorium with my horrible voice and to be honest, I dislike singing out loud.
